A person filming the Tour de France from the sidelines had his camera knocked from his hand. Before he could risk bending over to pick it up with the cyclists speeding by him, one of the competitors nabbed it and took it for a ride instead.

The YouTube user going by orangesokz identified the person who picked up the camera as Team Europcar cyclist Kevin Reza.
